Hi Rick,
looks like a great place to have fun on, must hold some special memories for you and yours. Really like the shadows that show off the contours of the snow here and the light spindrift off of the top adds a nice touch too.

Hi Rick,
This is Canadian winter in all its glory! I like this composition with the wind blowing. This place must be a lot of fun! You managed exposure very well. Thanks!

Seems to me you would need a snow cave to hide you from that fierce wind Rick! In our childhood location we built snow forts of giant blocks. Some years they lasted while all other snows had melted. We made me' tough...or was that Ford Trucks....? Well done. A memory caught and remembered!

Hi Rick,

My grandson would love this steep hill! I love the blowing snow and the contours of the snow on the hill. Good contrast with the big dark trees and the blue sky.

"WAS"?? My bet is that if given the right excuse you'd build a snow cave again! I know my husband would. There are some things men don't outgrow. I just looked up Cypress Hills on Google Earth. I now have a clearer picture of your location. Thanks for sharing this memory with us.

Hi Rick, I'll bet every kid who grew up in Canada (or anywhere where you find snow) has a favourite hill that they slid down, or dug into. Great shot, it brings back some great memories.

Thanks, John

Hello Rick

You have captured the effects of blowing snow on a bright sunny day very well.
I actually enjoy days like this,and the blue skies and blowing snow that drifts can be very beautiful.
Well illuminated with sharp detail.
